So I was just thinking this:

Even though I like the games from WiiU's 1st party 2014 holiday better, 2015 holiday obviously has a larger lineup.

This is considering a 'holiday game' as anything launched within the extended Christmas shopping timeframe (September through December)


2014 Holiday

Hyrule Warriors

Bayonetta 1 & 2

Super Smash Bros

Captain Toad

 

2015 Holiday

Super Mario Maker

Yoshi's Wooly World

Fatal Frame 5 (I forgot about this one!)

Starfox Zero

Xenoblade Chronicles X

Animal Crossing : Amiibo Festival

Mario Tennis

 

4 vs 6 titles. 

4 vs 7 titles

Now we know *why* Ninty fans are upset about this

1) No Zelda U

2) Yoshi and XCX were hoped to have been released WAY earlier

 

But nonetheless, I can't help but figure this year's holiday lineup combined will surely beat last year's holiday lineup - both in short term and long-term sales.

So I wager in terms of sales:

Mario Maker + Yoshi + Fatal Frame + Starfox + Xenoblade X + AC + Mario Tennis > Hyrule Warriors + Bayo 2 + Smash + Captain Toad

 

And that's even if they don't drop the price of the WiiU! But of course the other assumption is that *nothing* gets delayed.

Anyone want to take a bet?



I predict NX launches in 2017 - not 2016
